The tours will depart from the Venice Chamber of Commerce Building offering FREE parking and a convenient location. The ninety-minute narrated 10 AM Venice City Sightseeing Tour will focus on downtown history, architecture and things to do. It will be led in partnership with Venice Florida Tours. “We are excited to partner with Discover Sarasota Tours to bring a consistent trolley tour option to Venice. I hope this allows for more residents and visitors to learn about the history of Venice,” said Ronnie Fernandez, Owner and Tour Guide of Venice Florida Tours. The 1 PM Circus Secrets of Venice tour will be led by Circus Historian and Guide, Bob Collins and includes a stop at the Venice Train Depot and the Ringling Train Car Museum (led by Venice Area Historical Society docents). “We tend to forget that for more than three decades Venice took the spotlight from the city of Sarasota as winter home of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus.
